[Intro]
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
[Verse 1]
I don’t know what the deal is, but I could feel this
A definition. What it means to me to be the realest
These are the keys I speak that should’ve never seen the light of day
And I might be spitting with eyes closed, but believe me, I’m awake
Better believe that I am great
I’m bound to take all my journals and find a hideaway
To make a 9-5 job writing rhymes after I leave the united states
I don’t mean 9-5 like 9 am to the afternoon
I mean I’ll turn nocturnal, ‘cause fuck all of you
I don’t like hearing opinions, I’m not in need of a witness
Is this expressive or impressive? No one could tell me the difference
And I ain’t no man on a mission, matter of fact, this isn’t even written
This is a cry for a time machine, hoping the future me will listen
This that human being condition. What I gotta do to feed addiction
This that running from hunger and stuffing your face with food that’s in the kitchen
So many memories have been burning my tongue cause yea I’m spittin heat
But choking on food for thought is why I never breath
And I could’ve sworn, I could’ve sworn that I turned ten like last week
Now my shoe size ten, I’m sick in the head, and I keep producing beats
I don’t know what happiness means, you wanna know bout my dreams
Or where I’m headed in time? Don’t ask me
[Chorus]
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast forward
If you ain’t keeping up with time then press fast— *scream*
[Verse 2]
Stop the show
Leave to the left, that’s how you go
Lean to the left, that’s crowd control
Breathe the breath of a thousand souls
*gasp*
Stop the show
(Please)
Don’t hop out alone
(Leave)
Get up and go
Real shit rich, imposters broke
(Broke, broke)
Watch been broke
Nine, eight, sev, six, five to the four
Five to the floor like a wrestling ref, or a wrestling coach
What the fuck you know
Ready to go, aiming steady and long
Can’t forget me when I’m gone, they’ll be singing along like
Face down, ass up
That’s the way my life got me stuck
That’s the way the world got me stuck
That’s the way that you got me stuck
Look at my life like whoa
That’s the way my life got me stuck
That’s the way my life got me stuck
That’s the way my life got me fucked
[Verse 3]
I been stuck (ugh)
In the ocean (ocean)
In motion
Tryna catch up like I missed the bus
Fight with the might of the fisticuffs
No such thing as luck
And when I’m spittin’, I channel another dimension
So you better listen up
Who better than us
No one could tell us we suck, unless you be talkin’ bout
Suck as in sucking the blood out the necks of our enemies
‘Cause it’ll get us a rush
I don’t mean to disgust, but I do need to discuss
There is no doubtin’ that you know that I know that you know that
I know what I’m doing, there is no need for the fuss
So when you speakin’ to us, respect
I’m leading the group that’s next
I take control of my breaths I don’t know how many are left
But don’t call this emotional, and don’t call me the best
But I gotta confess, whenever I speak, even I’m impressed
But people even I’m depressed
No one gives a fuck about my time
They couldn’t care less about the rhymes
I’m still looking for a sign
I ain’t looking to get signed, but I been lookin and I sigh
But I still been reading lines off the insides of my eyes
I’m still broke, but word to the bible
Any place, I’m the best on arrival
No stress where I’m going, ‘cause time likes psychos
I’m reminded every time my watch out
So you mother fuckers better watch out
I don’t wanna be another washed out
Might as well stop right now and tap out
And I don’t even like the noise, but I’ll shout
Every single word is burning my mouth
Funny how I make a vision but you listen
And I do it to the tee like time out
And for every kid who thought I was weird
Every teacher who thought I was queer
Every time I stalled out going uphill while shifting gears
I fast forward, I got bigger fears and a face that’s full of my sweat and tears
Bigger pictures, this career, out of time, but it’s coming near
So wait another year, wait until I appear
And put me in your ears, do you hear me loud and clear?
[Outro]
The whole world gon’ be dancing
So the whole floor gonna fall apart (just bounce)
And we gon’ bawl, oh, we gon’ bawl
We gon’ burn and bawl at the center of this ball (just bounce)
We gon’ break into pieces stained, we don’t know where peace is staying (so just bounce)
With no restraints, go insane, goddamnit, just bounce
I don’t know your name, but if it means you numb the pain, then just bounce
Just bounce
